Jose Bosingwa was recalled by Portugal yesterday, four years after playing his last international.

The 32-year-old, who fell out with previous coach Paulo Bento, was included in the squad named by Fernando Santos for next Friday’s Euro 2016 qualifier at home to Armenia and the friendly against Argentina on Nov. 18. The Trabzonspor defender, won the last of his 24 caps in a 4-0 win over Spain in 2010.

Three years ago, he announced that he would not play for Portugal under Bento after the coach said that Bosingwa had been left out of the squad because he did not meet emotional requirements.
